"I have been looking for a good lamp that will cover the surface I am working on and the working area of my sewing machine. Good luck to Me! Edie"
Edie--If the Ott light isn't bright enough for you, you might want to try the Bendable Bright Light. It is almost blindingly bright! I have it, but prefer to use my folding desk Ott light, as it is bright enough for me. The Bendable Bright Light won't light up the entire surface on which you are working, but it certainly will light up the sewing area for you.
